  1. 6. Predictors of survival in cardiac arrest

    Author : Nooraldeen Al-Dury; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cardiac arrest; cardiopulmonary resuscitation; predictors; survival; machine learning;

    Abstract : Cardiac arrest (CA) refers to the cessation of cardiac function. Survival is around 30% for in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA), and 10% for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). READ MORE

  3. 8. Electroencephalography for neurological prognostication after cardiac arrest

    Author : Erik Westhall; Klinisk neurofysiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; EEG; Interrater variability; Brain injury; Cardiac arrest; Hypothermia; Prognosis; Outcome;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the prognostic value of electroencephalography(EEG) in comatose patients resuscitated after cardiac arrest (CA), using both simplified continuous EEG monitoring (cEEG) and routine EEG. Background: Comatose survivors are admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) to support vital functions. READ MORE

  4. 9. Cardiac arrest - an epidemiologic perspective on pharmacotherapy and post resuscitation care

    Author : Andreas Lundin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cardiac arrest; resuscitation; post-cardiac arrest care;

    Abstract : Background: Despite significant research and progress, cardiac arrest remains a condition with a high mortality rate, and few interventions have been demonstrated to improve outcomes in this patient group. Despite incorporation of adrenaline use in the treatment guidelines over several decades, its potential benefit remains uncertain. READ MORE

  5. 10. Circulatory Failure and Outcome in Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest

    Author : Joachim Düring; Lund Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cardiac Arrest; Out-of hospital cardiac arrest; Circulatory failure; Survival; Copeptin; Lactate; Temperature management;

    Abstract : Circulatory failure is considered one of the entities of the post cardiac arrest syndrome contributing to poor outcome. It is reported at 15-70% of all patients successfully resuscitated from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). READ MORE
